The Democrat-controlled House Ways and Means Committee voted on Tuesday evening to release Donald Trump's tax returns.
It ends a nearly four year long fight between liberal lawmakers and the former president, who fought tooth-and-nail to shield his financial statements from public view.
Debate lasted for more than three hours behind closed doors before a final vote of 24 to 16. All Democrats voted in favor of the action while all Republicans on the panel voted against.
It's not immediately clear when the documents will be released.

The misuse of government powers against private citizens has been a problem for a very long time. It did not start with Biden or Obama. Woodrow Wilson imprisoned those who spoke out against him. It is just easier now. The Feds have much more power now to wield using heavily armed bureaucrats and police with digital weapons at their disposal. Dims seem to have realized this quicker and employed these weapons more thoroughly.

The country is falling apart, and the children are still fighting among themselves.

Democrats are all about attaining any political weapon they can use against their opponents. They do whatever they believe is necessary to crush the opposition. They are a law unto themselves. This is what the road to tyranny looks like. Welcome to the new Amerikka.

Releasing Trumps returns is about as useful as tearing down statues.

I doubt if Trump takes his return to H&R Block every year. I’m sure he has an army of tax preparers who put his return together that know the tax law better than the clowns who wrote it.

"Average Taxpayers" have a thousand times more weapons than any government agency but thus far have opted not to use them. John Galt is not happy.

No. This should be a dandrous new weapon to use against the average Dem political. Rebublicans should subpoena every major DC Dem's records and their slime ball Dem relatives and make it public. Naci's hubby, Hunter Biden, Chuckie Schumer's tax returns should be fair game and open to the public. And find new ways to use the law against the Dems. Turn law fare into ta nuclear options.

We all know that this was the Democrats plan all along. Now the can call their spiteful illegal actions "oversight" and hide behind Congressional immunity for breaking the law. Democrats are determined to take every opportunity to try to make Trump look bad.

I wonder how many child support claims Hunter is taking a deduction for. Maybe we'll soon find out.

It should threaten the deep state, but it doesn't. They're not fazed at all that it might one day happen to them.

#13 The democrats gain more ammo to make the one guy that they all fear and hate with the fury of 1000 exploding suns look bad to their clueless voting base. Now if the Republicans are smart and brave, yes, I know, they will use every dirty democrat trick against corrupt fools like Pelosi, Biden, Waters and anyone associated with them.

Democrats don't have the authority to release - only review. If we ever get our country back, "Book 'em, Dano! "

The leftist Democrats created a giant legal and political precedent when the obtained and publicly released Trump’s tax returns. A wimpy Republican claiming that will impact Joe Blow from Kokomo is just an apparent dodge away from the tax returns of leftist, progressive, and socialist Democrat politicians who are now open to have their tax returns obtained and publicly released to the public, that is of course if the wimpy Republicans who will gain control of the House of Representatives shortly will find the intestinal fortitude to go after those Democrat politicians tax returns and that is not at all probable.

Trump created more real jobs with those commercial properties than Biden created in the 2nd Q, and even those were government do nothing jobs.
